Cloud Strategy

Many IT professionals in the recent past have suggested that cloud computing has changed the computing landscape by representing a fundamental shift in the delivery of information technology services. Cloud computing offers a banquet of technologies and services that include :

• Virtualization
• Elastic scaling
• Utility computing
• Platform as a Service (PaaS)
• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
• Software Oriented Architectures (SOA)
• Public, Private and Hybrid Clouds
• On-demand computing resources

Surveys show that cloud adoptees who have embraced one or more applications like Google Gmail/Calendar or Salesforce.com are more aggressive in their planning and approach than their competitors. Many IT Directors have become advocates of cloud computing as it impacts business, not just the IT costs. Adopting cloud computing technologies have made companies smart in their businesses. A staggering number of cloud adopters have agreed that cloud technologies:

• Enabled companies to respond faster to business requirements
• Helped companies to achieve specific business objectives which are significantly quicker and easier to deploy
• Changed the way companied did their business
• Helped companies to significantly lower their IT spending
• Changed the role of IT and IT staff within their business

Given the huge impact of cloud technologies on business and the sheer number of technologies, services, and platforms, it is necessary to have an efficient cloud strategy that takes into account specific roadmaps for cloud adoption without sacrificing quality of service and service level agreements to reduce or eliminate up front capital and operational expenses.
